holders to expend greater resources to monitor registrations as well as other trademarks being used in commerce. that is why i introduced h.r. 6215, to amend the federal trademark dilution act. this bill simply reformats the affected provision to clarify that federal registration only constitutes a complete bar to a state claim based on dilution or actual or likely damage or harm to the distinctiveness or reputation of a trademark. the change applies prospectively. this bill ensures that the trademark community is protected from those who seek to use this loophole as a way to disparage legitimate trademarks and cost their owners time and money. the only change the bill reported is a technical correction to a boiler plate reference regarding the date of enactment of the trademark act of 1946. the reported version inaccurately identifies the date of enactment as july 6, 1946, the correct date is july 5, 1946. i urge my colleagues to support h.r. 6215 and i'll reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. the gentleman from north carolina.
